I will have to say... try the T101 (Symphony). I just bought a used one from a trumpet player that has retired and it is the best playing trumpet I have ever played! I have played many different horns and owned many (Callet, WildThing, French Besson, Benge etc..) so I have played enough to know a little. It has the best valves I have ever pushed and it feels good in the hands. The intonation is spot on and slots very well even over double C. It has a nice and smooth sound until pushed. A simple mouthpiece cup depth change in either direction and you have a lead horn or Symphonic horn.... very flexible!

I am very happy and think I have found "the" trumpet for me... now the mouthpiece thing..... oh well. :wink:
